Sending Emails

ThanksImHired sends emails from your own Gmail account via SMTP — not from a bulk sending service. Each email comes from your own address, and replies come back to it.

How Sending Works

After you review your drafts and approve a send batch in the campaign's Review tab:

1. ThanksImHired schedules your emails across business hours
2. They send from your connected Gmail, up to the daily number shown on the Review tab, which is held to your plan's daily limit
3. Replies go directly to your Gmail inbox, where you read and answer them. ThanksImHired doesn't show replies yet.

Approving a Send

Approving generation only writes the drafts. Nothing is sent until you approve a send batch in the Review tab:

• Pick the drafts — tick the usable drafts you want to continue with and record Ready to approve. This records your review choice; it does not approve a send. You can also record Keep editing or Not sending.
• Choose the sending account — select one of your verified Gmail accounts.
• Read the schedule — the tab shows that emails are spread across business hours in your timezone, up to a daily number.
• Check the batch — Recipients included and Excluded from this batch list exactly who is in and who is out, with reasons.
• Confirm and approve — tick the confirmation that these exact recipients and messages are ready to send and that you have permission to contact them, then click Approve and schedule exact batch.

An approval covers that exact batch only. Saving the campaign's template afterwards expires an existing approved or scheduled batch, so you review it again in the Review tab before it sends.

Daily Limits and Campaign Size

Each plan has its own daily send limit; the pricing page lists them.

• Campaign size — you choose how many emails a campaign writes with the Campaign size slider on the approval card, up to the per-campaign limit your plan allows and your unreserved send credits. The card shows both.
• Daily limit — the number of emails ThanksImHired sends per day is shown on the Review tab and is held to your plan's daily limit, so keep an eye on your inbox

Emails are spread out across business hours rather than sent all at once.

Sending from Multiple Accounts

How many Gmail accounts you can connect depends on your plan. Your plan's daily limit covers all of your connected accounts together, so having more than one connected does not raise it. Settings → Sending accounts lists the accounts you have connected.

Tracking Sends

Send credits are shown in the sidebar as available and held. Approving generation holds credits for a campaign; a hold is not a charge. A credit is spent only when Gmail accepts an email, and credits that are not needed are released when the run finishes.

Open a campaign and choose its Activity tab to see the latest send outcomes:

• Accepted by Gmail — emails that Gmail accepted
• Failed — emails that could not be sent
• Skipped — recipients that were not sent, for example after you stop the remaining sends
• Pending — emails waiting to be sent
• Sending — emails being sent right now
• Unknown — check Gmail Sent — Gmail's answer is not known. These sends are never retried automatically, because that could send a duplicate. ThanksImHired checks your Gmail Sent folder automatically; once those checks finish you can mark each one Found in Sent or Not in Sent — return to drafts.

While a campaign still has sends queued, Stop remaining sends skips the recipients that have not started. It cannot recall emails Gmail has already accepted.

The Inbox tab at the top of the workspace lists the outreach you have sent across your campaigns, with each email's recorded outcome. Reply tracking isn't available yet: the Inbox shows sent outreach and recorded send outcomes only, and replies aren't shown. Gmail accepting an email does not confirm that it reached an inbox or got a reply.

Google's Own Limits

Your Gmail account is also subject to Google's sending limits and spam policies, which Google decides and can change. Sending to many recipients from a personal account can lead Google to limit or flag it, and we can't promise it won't. Keep your list targeted, keep each email relevant, and start with a small campaign.

Best Practices

Do:

• Start with a smaller campaign and send more once you're comfortable responding
• Check your Gmail inbox regularly during an active campaign, because that is where replies arrive
• Keep your resume updated before starting new campaigns

Don't:

• Disconnect or delete the connected Gmail account while a campaign is active
• Change your Gmail password while sending (this will break the connection)
• Treat your plan's daily limit as a target. Google's own limits apply to your account as well.
